1.1) The "Unable to use weaponskills" part, called Pacified, can be dispelled by all dispel skills like "Esuna", "Leeches" and even by "Purify", the PvP skill.
1.2) So having a macro saying to your healer(s) to dispel you will be a great thing to help both of you.
/macroicon Berserk
/action Berserk
/p Berserk used, I will be Pacified in 20seconds. Please Dispel it.
/wait 17s
/p I will be Pacified in 3 seconds. Please Dispel me. <se.5>
(don't use another macro before the last text is written or it won't be sent)

2) While Pacified, you can still use "Flash", your stun ("Brutal Swing"), "Mercy Stroke", and if you're still Maraudeur (MRD) you can also use "Stoneskin" instead of "Flash".

3) When you know you won't land another hit before the end of the buff, you can and should click on the Berserk icon in the buff list in order to cancel it to directly start the timer of Pacified, so you will be actually pacified less time than 5seconds if you see what I mean (because anyway, if you couldn't land a last hit, the time you can't attack because of your GCD is like being Pacified, so just activate it earlier to make it stacking on your natural GCD). You can also cancel it when a boss jumps/flies/disappears, so you won't be Pacified when he comes back.

4) Use Berserk right before using your GCD, so you won't waste time to succeed to land that 9th available attack with enough SkillSpeed. So if you use 2 offGCD (buff-like) skills between 2 GCD, be sure to use Berserk in 2nd offGCD.
For exemple :
As WAR : "Unchained" then "Berserk"
As MRD : "Raging Strike" then "Berserk"

5) Berserk is a good skill to be sure to generate a lot of aggro at the begining of a fight to avoid bursting people taking it from you.
"Unchained" + "Berserk" double your dmg under Defiance because you go from a multiplicator of x0,75dmg to x1,5dmg, which is twice bigger, so dont think those 5 seconds of Pacification will be a matter to keep aggro when you follow the several advice written above.
